Great hike!! We started a bit late (noon) but got back by 4:30. We hiked leisurely up then took a left turn down to the crash site. The trail down immediately became rocky n steep n not well marked. We found the plane but on the way back up the hill got off trail. So glad I had this app which got up back on trail!! The hike was forest n rain forest. We saw only 4 people. There was not much too much car noise from the surrounding roads (this was a Tues vs a weekend which may have been a factor). The first part of the trail isn’t hard n it is pretty well kept. Not so as u veer off n down to the plane so I wouldn’t rate this as an easy hike but give it a 4-5/10 for difficulty. I used trekking poles my partner did not...whatever u r most comfortable. Do bring water as well as the “10 essentials” n start prior to 10am.
